We Are Messengers Bring Irish Joy to Christmas with A Celtic Christmas Tour
Chart-topping band We Are Messengers is set to usher in the holiday season with their first-ever Celtic Christmas Tour, a unique celebration of Christ’s birth wrapped in the rich traditions of Irish music. Following a record-breaking global run in 2024, the award-winning group led by Irish-born frontman Darren Mulligan will launch the tour on December 4 with a sold-out show in Buffalo, N.Y., before heading to Michigan, Indiana, Ohio, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Illinois and beyond. Fans can look forward to an unforgettable night filled with fiddles, guitars, upright bass, concertina, and more, bringing to life both traditional carols and songs from the band’s first Celtic Christmas EP, Rejoice! (A Celtic Christmas). Tickets for most dates go on sale October 3 via WeAreMessengersMusic.com, making this tour one of the most anticipated Christmas events of the year.
Alongside timeless Christmas favorites, concertgoers will also experience some of the band’s most beloved hits, including “Come What May,” “Maybe It’s Ok,” and “A Thousand Times.” For Mulligan, the vision behind the tour is deeply personal—rooted in his Irish upbringing where Christmas was celebrated with both joyous festivity and quiet reverence for Christ’s birth. “Sometimes the busyness of the season can eclipse the wonder of a God who sent His only Son,” he reflects. “In Ireland, Christmas is celebrated with lively joy and holy stillness, and I want to share that with the world.” With A Celtic Christmas Tour, We Are Messengers offer more than just a concert—it’s an invitation to rediscover the beauty of Christmas through music that is fresh, timeless, deeply Irish, and wholly Christ-centered.
